Video Game General 2: Definitive/Remastered Edition

Shinesparking is such a goddamned pain in the ass. And I think part of the problem is that it’s activated with the B button, which is the same as the jump button. Which means that if you’re not careful, you might accidentally waste your charge when trying to maneuver yourself.
And since I’m already on the subject is of grievances I have with the game, I think the biggest one I have with dread is the fact that you cannot change the controls from their default layout. A thumbstick is too imprecise for my tastes, and I cannot count the number of times I tried to aim at an enemy, only to accidentally go into morph ball mode because despite what’s been ingrained into me by countless FPSs, you don’t aim with left trigger in this game.

@Silent_Witness
It takes a little getting used to, but I don’t mind how using the thumbstick as it makes aiming more precise then an 8-direction D-pad would.
And it’d be kinda hard to aim with the left-stick, and I’m used to using a face button to shoot in Metroid.

I’m used to old stuff like Super Metroid, and Contra, so if amything I’m better at sidescrolling shooters than FPS games, and I’m not sure FPS controls would work for a sidescroller.
But I guess mappable controls would be nice. Super Metroid had that option, so it’s odd no other Metroid after offered that.

In fact, I was kinda annoyed at how StarFox Assault, and SFZero were a bit FPS-like with the controls, (at least Assault let you change that for on-foot mode) as I prefered the classic SF64 controls.

Kind of a dealbreaker, Halo has no fullscreen mode…

the new dragon ball game is basically “Dead by Daylight: Anime Edition”

Why are they putting Naruto in Fortnite?

It’s kind of a mess of universes and properties as it is, and I find Naruto kind of passé.

I think it’s “mainstream” enough that everyone’s heard of them. Plus another excuse for Epic Games to milk their player base (or what’s left of it.)

I only have 75 Jiggies.

I’m never beating Banjo-Tooie.

You don’t have to “100%” a game in order to beat it. Just sayin’!

That’s Quitters talk.

>Not 100%ing a game

What are you, a casual?

@Background Pony #5590
Most people don’t 100% a game because it takes to much effort. And usually effort is what stops people from doing a 100% speedrun of a game because it take too long to play every level in said game.

@Goku Black
It’s like The Completionist said. Once you turn that “100% switch” on, you can never turn it back off.

Metroid Dread is one of nominees for GOTY! YES!

@Mikey
That’s good to hear.

Jennifer Oneal quit Blizzard after being sexually harassed and marginalized after only cochairing for 4 months. Moreover, according to multiple sources, Activision CEO Bobby Kotick knew about the sexual harassment and frat boy culture at Blizzard for years. He brushed over it because Blizzard was a cash cow.

Blizzard is dead, all that’s left is the burial.

@Zincy
The head of corporations tend to know when their company houses abusers. They just don’t care, though.

@Zincy
Activision themselves will be dead if they don’t fire Bobby Kotick.

Wait, most people don’t 100% a game?

Most people are lame, yes.

Imagine putting a lot of time into a game and NOT getting everything in it.

@Penguin Dragneel
Let Activision go bankrupt. The remasters of their most beloved Blizzard games from the late 90s and early 2000s were not very good, from what I hear.

Halo Infinite is great so far. Well, the multiplayer anyway.
